I cannot say when I first noticed the 114 on the shelves, was it a response to Rare Breed or was it the other way round?

What Bourbon Are You Drinking? Spring 2013

Dusty 8 year old WT. Fabulous drink, to be sure. Note the crumbled cork floating in the bottle. Such a common problem with older bottles of WT but who the hell cares. I love this stuff!ImageUploadedByTapatalk1371784705.575842.jpg

I'm just going to throw out a bunch of numbers: 18 51592. If you know what I'm talking about, you may have been privy to some damn good whiskey! I'll throw a 90 and a 3271 in there just to further confusion.

Now some letters. HH EC Binny's. Yum. Sorry, forgot to announce the punctuation.
